Its very straightforward and easy to find. In fact you will come across signs that help direct you to the Redgarden wall and to rewritten specifically. 

 In short, park at the entrance lot area and take the main access trail to the Redgarden wall. Hike up the Redgarden wall, past the stairs, ladder and switchbacks till you hit a sign for rewritten/yellow spur. The climb is well traveled and the landing zone reflects the use, just another moment past the sign. You may also find that on most days to look for the crowd of people/backpacks. Many climbs start in this area, they are popular and well worth your time.
